Thanks.
I just got it.
I set a "JDK_HOME" environ variable ( no spaces in the path ),
I moved the exe to the TOMCAT_HOME\bin
I moved their tomcat32Install.bat file to TOMCAT_HOME\bin
I ran the install file
I went to services ( windows 2000 ) and there is no "tomcat" there.
Any ideas what I didn't do?
Thanks in advance
Steve

Steve,
I recently set Tomcat up as a service on an NT box using JavaService :
http://www.alexandriasc.com/software/JavaService/documentation.html
<http://www.alexandriasc.com/software/JavaService/documentation.html>
It's pretty straight forward to set up and has been working for a week now
with no probs whatsoever. JavaService was originally inspired by Windows
service issues with Tomcat so is an ideal solution.
Later, Tim.

Hi;
I found some instructions at jakarta.apache.org for making tomcat a service:
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-3.3-doc/NT-Service-howto.html
<http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-3.3-doc/NT-Service-howto.html>
It didn't answer some questions I would like to know before I begin.
1. The instructions mention setting TOMCAT_HOME in wrapper.properties.
Lets say this is c:\tomcat.....do I put it inq uotes? Do I use the "\"
as a path seperator or a "/"?
2. The instructions mention that there is a bug in jdk1.3 that if you follow
thei nstructions to make
tomcat a service and you stop the service no clean up will happen. Is
there anything bad about
that? What will not happen? Does this bug also exist in jdk1.3.0_02
?
Thanks in advance
